Dameine Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Howsit guys, I'm in the process of getting 2 x Bloombeast A520 Led COB lights and would just like to find out if any of the other growers have/had them and how efficient they were?

SkunkPharm Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 For that price you could get 2 240w quantum boards. Just my opinion. Enjoy the lights. I would build a QB board with Samsung Lm301b strips. Or if your not into DIY buy something from growopz or aeradix with local warranty.

Dameine Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 Shot for the reply bro. It's my 1st indoor setup and saw good reviews on them and they seem to have all I need. Came across someone in JHB with them so no need for ridiculous import and shipping fees. Were used for 6 months so price I'm getting both for is great. You think 2 x A520 will be sufficient for a 1.5m x 1.5m x 2m tent? Regarding the DIY side of things, never really thought of going that route as my science skills are on the non existent side. Haha but definitely going to consider that when I upgrade eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkunkPharm Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Ask the guy why he is selling and ask for pics of what he had grown with them. Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dameine Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 I've seen Pics. But I am going to inspect them soon. Apparently the guy has just upgraded his setup so needed bigger lights. If I take them I will definitely put some pics of setup and grow etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyCLown Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I agree with Skunk, I'd rather have QB's over those.Although of you're on a budget and the price is exceptional, then why not.Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dameine Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 @PsyCLown Shot for the response. I do have a budget however it is about 6k for lights. Really like the look of the A520 and it's specs hence why I found them in SA I was quite happy. Although if peeps here can assist me with better knowledge and steer me in the right direction , I would definitely consider other options too. If you have a link for these QBs that you and @SkunkPharm speak of so I may see specs and do some research on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
